Deadlock Victim- I thank you kindly for the linky love.
Some people may not appreciate the revolutionary nature of SPAM Singles, but believe me you the electers of George W in '04 do and Texas will decide the Democratic nominee whether 'murica likes it or not. It's best you understand what matters to Texans, 'cause it's remotely possible it could go Democratic in a presidential general election and that hasn't happened since LBJ.

Well crap, I've never been over here before and used html. Not so much to link to my blog, more to praise SPAM Singles, you know.

Quote:You've got pretty low standards then. That's a little like saying Herbert Hoover did a "pretty good job". Recall that Presidents before Bush have had to deal with civil war, world wars, world depressions and all that. Isn't that the job of the Presidency? So now that Bush has left our military in a shambles, caught us in a 3 trillion dollar war, started a flirtation with another worldwide depression, transitioned us from the US dollar as THE world currency, and done next to nothing on fixing the destruction from natural disasters... eh, what did you mean by "pretty good" again?
Considering all the shit Bush had to deal with, like the aftermath of the Dot.com bubble, 911, the largest natural disaster in US history and two wars. I think he has done a pretty good job.
I didn't vote for Bush in '00 or '04. And I didn't vote for Clinton in '96, once I got a drift of what he was about. So thankfully, I can wash my hands of smegma that has gotten smeared all over DC.

Quote:Ah Finn... you reveal your true stupidity. Wars are supposed to benefit us, not the other way around.
And when Kerry lapses into his anti-war hippy days when he trashed American troops and praised the enemy that was killing them, how will that benefit the war?

Quote:People forget that Adolph got Germany RUNNING again! He strengthened the economy, pulled public opinion together, and made amazing strides in discipline!! So, he was a little hard on some peeps, but does that make him a bad Pres-er, I mean, dictator, or whatever he was?

Finn how can you call John Kerry a coward over Bush? John Kerry actually went to Vietnam...you're saying that a veteran has no right to disagree with a war he was in? Are you really calling someone who was in theater more spineless than a guy who never saw a bullet in his life? You must really think those troops who come back without limbs and disagree with the war are real big cowards by that reasoning. I'm not trying to be cruel or broad brush you here but, that real is the meat and potatoes of what you espouse to believe.
EDIT: Finn even Fox admits Kerry had a distinguished military career

You're very welcome - someone needs to lighten up this dungeon up from time to time.
As far as Texas, Texans, Democrats and George Bush go - well, I can speak for some of the YDD's* still around the Lone Star - we didn't want Shrub to run the Rangers Baseball team much less the State as governor.... and then horror of horrors the entire country as Mr. President.
It was about the time of his first presidential election that I realized that the Florence Joes, Jacky Johns, Carl Waynes and Reverend Deans of this country can indeed be a force to be reckoned with. If you throw the three G's around enough (God, Guns & Gays) - as was the GOP strategy in '00 & '04 - the faithful will come out of the woodwork. Poor people actually voted against their own best interest because they thought Gore or Kerry were going to take their precious firearms away from them.
Keep those Flo Joe stories coming - they are hi-larious... Oh, and i do visit your poetry blog, too.

Quote:I don’t know, maybe you could explain it, because I certainly never said Kerry is a coward. Surprisingly, conversations generally progress further if you respond to what other people actually say, instead of what you wished they had said.

Quote:So basically, you have convinced yourself that if there were a Democrat in office, we’d all be shitting rainbows right now. I don’t know what to tell you, except that this is naïve on so many levels.

Gore's no hawk, but I don't see him bein' an ostrich either.
I just don't realistically see how this world could have been worse off with Gore (or even Kerry (ughhh)).
